Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

<u>A geological time scale is the sequence of events that have taken place in the past since the formation of the earth</u>. These events have formed due to the various geological process that has undergone in the past and are grouped in different zones. These show how the landscape formed and when the organisms started to appear and how the evolutionary process has taken place.

These events are grouped into three eons namely,  

1) Hadean  

2) Archaean  

3) Proterozoic

4) Phanerozoic- It is again divided into three parts. They are-

        (a) Paleozoic

        (b) Mesozoic

        (c) Cenozoic

These geological time scales play an important role in understanding the existence of different phases on earth and also it helps in identifying which age a rock belongs. It is very frequently used by geologists to determine the past activities.

Thus, the correct answer is Option (B).

OleMash [197]

After four divisions, the zygote becomes a morula- the stadium that consists of 16 blastomeres. By the fifth day of development the form of the blastocyst is formed through the processes of compaction, cell division, and blastulation. Later, specialized cells in the embryo are derived from the inner cell mass (ICM) of the blastocyst.
